Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS Reviews

Photozone reviews the Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS and writes;“The image corners are somewhat soft at 18mm @ f/3.5 and 55mm @ f/5.6 but if you stop down to the sweet spot – around f/8 – you can expect sharp results across the frame.”Rating:

Ephotozine reviews the Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS and writes;“Overall, the performance of this lens isn’t up to the same high standard of many other manufacturers kit lens offerings. Sharpness levels are good, but nothing special, and falloff is very well controlled.”Rating:

Lenstip reviews the Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS and writes;“You can also find some nice accents here, like a very good control of chromatic aberration but it also features one flaw you can’t omit – a not very efficient optical stabilization.”rating: N/A

Photoreview reviews the Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS and writes;“Bokeh at the widest aperture settings was a little smoother than the 30mm f/2 lens but out-of-focus highlights remained slightly chunky.”Rating:

PCMAG reviews the Samsung 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS and writes;“If you value size above all, the 20-50mm is a good lens, but the 18-55mm’s optical stabilization makes it possible to get sharper photos in less than ideal light. If you add this lens to your kit the way most people do, by having it bundled with a camera, it’s a good value”Rating:
